Protos Verdejo Reserva Ruedo DO - Bodegas ProtosIn the glass, the Protos Verdejo Reserva Ruedo from the house of Bodegas Protos offers a bright, pale yellow color. Poured into a white wine glass, this Old World white wine reveals wonderfully expressive aromas of mango and passion fruit, rounded off by toasted wood and lemon peel contributed by maturation in wooden barrels. The Bodegas Protos Protos Verdejo Reserva Ruedo delights with its elegantly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. As you would expect from a wine, this Spaniard naturally enchants, despite all its dryness, with a most refined balance. Aroma does not necessarily require sugar. On the palate, this well-balanced white wine is characterized by an extraordinarily dense texture. On the finish, this white wine from the Castile-León wine-growing region impresses with good length. Once again, hints of mango and passion fruit appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the clay- and limestone-dominated soils join in. Vinification of the Protos Verdejo Reserva Ruedo by Bodegas Protos This white wine clearly focuses on a single grape variety, namely Verdejo. Only first-class grapes were used for this wonderfully balanced varietal wine from Bodegas Protos. In Castile-León, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on clay and limestone soils. After the harvest, the grapes are brought to the winery as quickly as possible. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in small wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. After the end of fermentation, the elegant Protos Verdejo Reserva Ruedo is aged for another 7 months in French oak barriques.
